Hi everyone...
1st time applicant and first experience on the grad cafe...
I got into Temple for fiction last week (waitlisted "high up" for a teaching assistantship) and today just got waitlisted to Rutgers Camden (which was my first choice). I applied hybrid with a Fiction manuscript that included some poetic forms. It's my first round of this application process, my waitlist letter was super encouraging from Paul Lisicky and said if a spot opens up I would receive a call. Anyone have any advice or experience with the waitlist? Particularly because I applied hybrid I'm wondering if it matters if a Fiction or Poetry space opens up. Anyway, hope more good news for acceptances and possibilities like the waitlist go around today.
